Pockets Run Low!
I love everything about these work pants with one exception. The pocket placements are a bit too low for me.
Keep in mind, I needed to hem them 2", from a 30" to a 28" inseam (30" is the shortest available i could find).
I feel like a need to bend at the waist just a little too much to reach tools in the leg pockets. Maybe it's just me..

Just wanted a good pair of work pants. But what I got were a great pair of work/play pants that look and feel GREAT! Good pocket arrangement, many uses. Snaps are a little stiff, but I may need to just use them more for break-in. I will order more

I wear these black ripstop pants when teaching motorcycling classes at the community college. They look professional while retaining ample pocket space and comfort. Great product that fits well and looks good. Tough as nails in the saddle or on the asphalt.

Good for work and casual wear. Pockets on the outside of both legs handle the large size smartphones easily. For my purposes, the top layer pocket on the right might be better if it was not split into the two narrow channels in the present design, but the two slots are okay for carrying tools such as a screwdriver or drywall knife without them shifting sideways. Based on a previous pair purchased, the durability and appearance have been excellent. A little stiff at the start, these pants will soften with washing and wear

Excited - Preliminarily
I work in the forestry industry, and climbing trees is one of my main jobs. I was very excited to purchase these pants because they were light weight, and supposedly semi-resistant to rips/piercing. However, after buying five pairs at one time and using them every day for several months, I found them to be weak in design and fit. The fit was not right, and were too tight around my waist, but at the same time were baggy in the legs. After putting the fabric through the ringer, I found that the crotch was almost more susceptible to friction wear than traditional jeans. I also found that the fabric was very easily pierced by thorns and other sharp things. After two pairs of these pants became unusable due to crotch wear out, I have switched back to wearing jeans. Another problem is that the rip stop feature does not actually stop the rip. Several of the holes in my pants have continued to rip and fray. The cost of these pants are not worth their performance in the field. While the pants look good and are light weight and breathable, I have been frustrated with their performance in a hard environment. Originally pleased, ultimately disappointed.

Damn good pants. They feel good, look good and carry a lot of stuff. The fit is a little long in the legs, but when you're wearing boots, it does not matter. Well worth the price.

I ordered two pairs of these pants, two years ago and wear them every work day in a fab shop.
Only now is the crotch starting to show signs of wear.
I like them because of the side pocket for a cell phone. This keeps the phone clean, and easy to access.
I just brought two more pairs
